MIIA is a Norwegian singer-songwriter who has been making waves in the music industry since she was 14 years old. After recording multiple pop hits in Los Angeles, MIIA took a step back from music to figure out who she truly wanted to be. She pursued her other passions, history and environmentalism, and received her B.A. from the University of Oslo. However, MIIA eventually came to the realization that music was her true calling and has been honing her craft over the past few years. MIIA’s music has found a home in the world of Film/TV/Trailers, with her songs being featured in shows like The Kardashians, Vanderpump Rules, and Virgin Territory, as well as in a massive worldwide Samsung commercial. Her single “Dynasty,” which premiered on Billboard and hit Top 5 in numerous verified playlists like New Music Friday, has over 120 million streams on Spotify and laid the foundation for the artist MIIA had always dreamed of being. Now, after consistently garnering 1.4 million monthly listeners on Spotify, MIIA is ready to unveil a fresh chapter with her debut EP due in 2023. Her newest single, “Skin of a Fool” featuring Vaarin, is a soul-stirring and powerful piece that immediately draws listeners in with its upfront yet magical soundscape. The song’s heavy drums and unshielded lyrics express the deep graveness of the song, with MIIA and Vaarin guiding listeners through their powerful story, culminating in what feels like an indestructible, liberating whirlwind. MIIA and Vaarin wrote “Skin of a Fool” during a vulnerable conversation about feelings they had felt surrounding not being good enough. Their producer, Joachim “J RYGGS,” had already created enchanting chords that spoke to them immediately. The song is about allowing darkness to “get out” and letting love in, in order to finally be free. MIIA’s music is dramatic yet delicate, and “Skin of a Fool” is no exception. The song is sure to awaken a mighty strength in us all and is a type of song that doesn’t come by often enough. With her debut EP on the horizon, MIIA is poised to make her mark on the music industry once again.
